Jaime Munguia is gearing up for an exciting end to his 2024 boxing year with a highly anticipated showdown in his hometown of Tijuana, Mexico. On December 14, he will face unbeaten Frenchman Bruno Surace in a 10-round super-middleweight bout at the Estadio Caliente. This marks Munguia’s fourth fight of the year, showcasing his determination to stay active in the ring.
Munguia (44-1, 35 KOs), the former WBO junior middleweight champion, has had a busy and challenging year. After starting 2024 with a career-best win over John Ryder, he suffered a loss to the legendary Canelo Álvarez but quickly rebounded with a strong knockout victory over Erik Bazinyan. Now, he faces Surace, who is stepping into the ring for the first time in 2024, and has an undefeated record of 25-0-2, although with only four knockouts. Despite his solid record, Surace has yet to face a fighter of Munguia’s caliber, which puts him at a significant disadvantage in this bout.
For Munguia, this fight represents an opportunity to continue his rise in the super-middleweight division as he eyes future big matchups. His return to Tijuana, where he has many fans, adds extra excitement to the event, as he looks to give them another spectacular performance.
